TTIK FIGHT FOR TIIK HIOTIT.
Since onr last issue affairs'in Columbia
bavc'takcn (in extraordinary ttirn,'fnnd a
recital of the eve nts is enough to nstonish
the most stolid "nature. On Wednesday
last.the Supreme Court Jissucd an
order to theJStntc', Hoard "of Canvassers
commanding them to certify to the election
of the members of the legislature as
appeared from the^fiiee of the returns,
leaving the judicial functions pertaining
to the status of the individuals appearing
so chosen to the legislative body. The
order also called on the Board to show
cause why they should not revise the aggregations
vote for Presidential electors
by comparing them with the precinct returns
also in their possession. By a sad
deo stroke the Canvassers Board cut their
way out of the legal net by issuing rrrli 11wu's
to the Siayes e'eoi r- and the Republican
mr aers of the h-gi 'h: lire, throw
1 i<g out the v.ile of Ldu? field and Laurens
counties on ttic ground of fraud and in?
limidation. The Board then adjourned
without day, pleading that by the law
they must decide within a period which
expired on that day. The throwing out
of these two Democratic counties would
give the State and the Legislature, which
catriA a United States Scnatorship with
it to the Republicans and defeats the two
members of the State ticket that, were
elected according to the count submitted
to the Supremo Court. Of cour.-e this
sudden move created great excitement
and disconcerted the Democracy who
were not prepured for such a wholesale
grab by the Board.
On Friday the Supreme Court took the
matter up and in the morning issued a
rule to the canvassers and their counsel,
Corbin, to show cause why they should
not be attached lor contempt in violating
the court's order of the 17ih inst, and
issuing certificates in defiance of the court.
In the afternoon the court room was
crowded and Corbin put in answers for
the Board, but the answers w ere not satisfactory
and the court was inclined to
commit the whole lot, but I hey were given
till Saturday morning to make make their
final anawers.
On Saturday the Court took up the
cases against the board for contempt and
unci ingumum fccnicuccu cacn ana every
no of the members to a fine of $1,500
and to be imprisoned in the county jail
until the further order of the court. Air.
Corbin's case ns attorney for the hoard
was then taken up but at his request was
postponed till Monday. The court in
ilie afternoon took an nrdi r under advisincnt
requiring the hoard of canvassers
to make comparisons of the returns of the
county canvass rsand the returns of precinct
m inpgir- in cases of Presidential
?lectors but came to no decision. The
court declined to issue an order giving
certificates to members of the Legislature
from EdgcCe'd andJLaurens counties, rclustd
by the board, hut said that such
members could obtain a copy of the record
from the clerk of the court, which
would be equivalent to a certificate. 7 he
live members of the state hoard, Cardozo,
Duon, Stone, Hayne and Purvis were then
locked up ia jail to await events on Monday.
On Monday Mr. Corhin appliul to
Judge Bond of the United States Court

hoard who had rciiiaim d quietly in jui'
irt er buaday living like piinces rather
lliau jailbirds. The prisoners were produced
but their counsel .asked ior time
which was granted and in the meantime
the board were to be in cburgc of the U
8. Marshal. Mr. Corbin's case was called
but no decision wasmidein his case which
was also deferred. There whs gieat
excitement in the cily over the aclicn of
Judge Bond an ! trouble was feared, but
Gen. Hampton preserved order on the
part of the Democrats and nothing occar
red to disturb the peace. In the evening
it was discovered tint the Stite
House had b.'in tilled with U. 8. soldiers
tind the plan of the republicans was plain
hs to the course they meant to pursue.
1 lie following p -o.est was telegraphed

! "It is literally true that the Democrats
j received their greatest majorities in the
Counties where the United States soldiers
were stationed. What pretence, therefore,
is there for Governor Chamberlain's demand
for troops to keep the peace ? VS c

I On MondllV lust in the Snnpi.mo Sr.
Columbia ttio chief Juslics referred to h
tcurrillous article in the Union Herald "a
! paper," he said, with a grain of satire
I "withsut ostensible editor or proprietor,''
and which lie thought should not be
allowed to pass unnoticed: Justice WilI
an I said "this article is cf that elas<
called scurrillons, tliat does not present
any substantial charge that any honorable
man is bound to notice, and is regarded
| universally as the emanation of a low and
| sordid mind. It is an article of that
I class that docs not find place in any of
the respectable or rcsp insib'.e journals of
the country. We do not know who is
rcspon ible for this article, but we propose
taking actiou to find the proper parities
and bring th< 111 before the bar of
: this court, at the proper time. An order
will, therefore, be entered by the court
retelling it to counsel to submit an order
to the court with the view of bringing
the proper parties before the liar of this
court,that they may be dealt with as the
cusc demand* "
SOME SETTLED rOINTS.
After all this is a government of law.
DaVbV dftV. disCII?<ii<n clmn-o ?
. . . , ...w.t ?
I ly what the law requires, and, it we exj
oept * few hot-headed partisans, <lie peo]
pic manifest a determination to abide by
| the law and sustain its enforcement
Discussion lias settled ccrtuin points already.
The Constitution leaves to each State
the duty of ascertaining the will of its
people in the choice of a President, and
guarding the election and the counting
of the voles by eucli precautions
anj forms as flic State may deem
best. If a state is in such condition,
through rebellion or d >nv stic violence
that it cannot participate in a choice ol
Piasiclcnt, as was tiuo of some State,
duiing and nficr tlic war, the Consttution
makes ro specific provision, becau c
it presumes that nei her House of Congress
nor the Vice-President will recognize
ns a State that which is not a State.
But if a State exists, si organized as t i
be entitled t? v >tc at all, th ? Con tit u> i- n
loaves to that State t he mode of ascertain
ing the will of P.s elector3.
When the electors meet, on the daj- fix
ed by law, their first duty is to verify
their powers?to ascertain that they are
the persons lav fully elected. If by error,
fraud, or disregard of law, a certificate
has been given to a p rson not duly elected,
the other ilcctois will know the
fact, and act upon it.
VV hen the Ci itific ttcs have been received
land are opened" by the President of the
j senate, the Constitution requires both
Houses or Congress to be present. Hut
it docs uot ch arly make the presence of
both necessary to tl.e validity of the
election. It does not empower either
House to do auytliing except be presentThe
language of Kent, on this point, i>
entitled to weight scarcely less than a
decision of the highest legal authorityHe
says: "I presume, in the ubscnceofall
legislative provision on the subject, that
the President of the Senate counts the
votes an?l declares the result, and that the
two Ilouscas arc present only as spectator*
to witness th? fairness and accuracy
of the transaction, and to act only if no
choice Uc made by the electors." This
view is sustained by the example of those
who framed the Constitution.
The words of Kent recognise that "legislative
provision" might he made, by
joint resolution, or otherwise, prescribing
other modes, but none exist; the 22d
Joint Rule ha* been repealed; and the
matter stands precisely as it did when
the opinion of Kent was cjpressed.
According to that opinion, can it !jr
supposed that either House can nullify an
election by the people by mere refusal to
attend and witucssthc counting}
If this view is correct, the House has
no power whatever to nullify an election
by seceding from that joint convention,
or by refusing to attend. TUo Constitution
imposes a duty upon th* President
of the Senate, the Senate, und the House,
ami 11 euner should refuse to perform
the duiy thus imposed, it would not defeat
the will of the people. It would
still be the duty of the Presidunt of the
Senate to open the certificates. It would
still be the du'y of the Senate to attend,
"witnessing the fairness and uccuracy of
the transact ion." No formal declaration
by the two Houses is required by the
Constitution, which tays, simply that the
portion having a majority of all the votes
"shall l?e President." When once the
votes have been counted, at the prescribed
time and by the proper official, nothing
but revolutionary violence can prevent
the inangnration of I he person who receives
a majority of the votes.?N. T.

T1IE STATE.
Th? opening of the State fair has been
postponed until the 5th of December.
Gen. Hampton declines to receive as a
present his old home, winch was to he
purchased for that purpose by the Indies

There seems to be a mutual non-admiration
society 111 South Carolina. Tiie
! board of canvassers hold tbo Supreme
Couit in contempt, and the court and ail (
honest men hold the board in supreme
i contempt. i
The Sumter Democratic elub have j
passed resolutions pledging themselves (
not, to lend tln-ir aid or patronage to the i
Republican party by going their surety '
on the oflicial bond of any of their can- (
didates lately elected. ]
Isaac and Jim Wallace, two brothers,
vwuMcti, nving mi me ?my p aniation,
about nine miles below Barnwci1, got into
t\ dispute atmut some land rent on ^
Tuesday morning lnnt, when Jim seised j
? market ar.d'siiot Isaac, killing him instantly,
and then fled. The trouble grew
out of Isaac making way with all the ^
cotton which Jim claimed for rent.
Putting the sudden movement of the t
I South Carolina board of canvassers in 1
! the best light, it is manifestly nnd liter- s
I ally a dodge, and, being so, it is exactly
the sort of thing which the great majority
of men of all parties will concur in
reprobating. Qjii. Hampton, in his dignified
and temperate address to the people,
expresses confidence that the trick cannot
serve the purpose ?f those who have
executed it. Certainly such a proceeding
ought not to have even a temporary and
prima facie validity.?N. Y. Journal of
Commerce.
A shooting affair in Hlackville last Sat

t lire e persons were wounded in that city
by pistol shots, and one stabbed. Mr.

THK LBOISLATUBE.
The long-looked for meeting of the
General Assembly took place yesterday
morning. When th? members having
certificates from tho Supremo court attempted
to enter the house they were
stopped by bayonets in the hands of U.
, S. soldiers, and they were obliged to remain
outside. The Repnbliejtng numh >r
ing 59 organized, l?.y electing E. W. M.
Mnckey speaker and A. O. Jones clerk.
The Domociats retired to another building
ard were joined bv two Republicans ,
MrReedish of Orangeburg, white, and
J. W. Wcsthurv, colored of Suinter-mak/
ing their number, with the members from f
Elgcflcld and Laurens, eir.ty-six; leaving
out the representatives from these coun- A
ties, fifty eight of the member* with ccrti- u
fieates from the secretary of state leaving
I the Republican house without a quorum.
I The Democratir, or Constitutional house
as they have earned it, then proceeded to f
organize Judge Cooke administered
the oath Ur the members, when Ocu Wallace
was elected speaker and Mr. J. F.
Sloan clerk, and J. 1). Brown of Orangeburg
sergoant-at-arms. A committee
was then appointed to call on the secretary
of state to obtain the election returns
for Governor and Lieutenant-Governor.
The committee consisted of Messrs
Shcppnrd, Aldrich and Orr.
Hughes and Mullin, the alleged Lincoln
monument robbers and body snatchr;rs,
who were recently arrested, have
oeon indicted at Springfield, II!., (or con
spiring to steal I incoln's body and for
larceny. There is said to be no doubt of
their guilt. It is now alleged that their
object was to bury Lincoln's remains in
some secluded nlnce. nn<l to <rivt> (1mm >
only on payment ofn large sum of money.
They expected to receive two hundred
thousand dollars for their singularly
horrible undertaking.
The constitutional amendments in Vir
Uinia have been adopted by n large majority.
They provide for bienninl sessions
of the legislature and for the disfranchisement
of voters for petit larceny
*nd noil payWtent of their po 1 tax. It is
reckoned that tlie costs of the session of
the Virginia legislature will be reduced
|150,000 by the amendments, and the
state school funds," to which the receipts
from tlie poll taxes will be transferred, is
jure to be largely increased.
AN KN1> TO TMKGANO.
The sentence of the Younger brothers
to imprisonment for life in the Minnesota
date penitentiary for the robbery of the
North field bank and tlie murder of the
'ash icr, i* a step toward breaking up
the most dangerous gang of mfiiinu west
>f the Mississippi river. The Youngers,
the Colas and the Jameses hare Iwcn con:eracd
in the robbery of railroad train*1
plundering of slags coaches, and the
Hank burglaries almost w^hout number.
Their criminal exploits have liecn of the
nost daring kind, and and all readers of
the ncur.-p ipcrs will remember the uiost
nlicnt features of tlieir deeds. Their
tiandi have heen drenched in hlood, for
t*cv never hesitated to commit murder
nlian it-was necessary to the carrying out
?f their intentions. The gang has been
limited down from the Arkansas river to
the Platte, hut none of its members weicj
jauglit until they ventured into Minneso- [
ta and made their fatal raid on the North i
icld bank. The heroism of tlia casliier,'
who, rather than surrender tlie keys of
[lie T iult, faced the pistols of the raiders
ind yielded up Ins life, is we'l known.
I'he pursuit of the marauders ended in
[lie killing of two of them and the capture
of the Youngers, who have confessed
>11 trial and been sentenced to life imprisonment
in .Minnesota. 'I lie remainder
>f 'be gang hn\ j been hiding since that
unfortunate enterprise, and ar* now probably
in th -ir haunts in the farthest rceigs s
of .Miss >uii or Arkansas.
